Take the absolute value of the dot product between the reference normal and each point. That way there is not an issue if the reference normal becomes negative.

This doesn't really solve the problem. The issue is that the dot product as it stands will calculate distance from the object center wrt. the optimal plane. Instead we need to compute the distance from the polygon centroid:

Afaik, this is wrong. You should be able to add any constant vector to vert without changing the result (so subtracting poly_center does not make a difference). Also see the discussion in D13906.

- Merge branch 'master' into fix_planar
- Use -FLT_MAX rather than FLT_MIN for initial comparison values.

You're right, i didn't realize it compares the range and not min/max separately.
